Black Tea, with its long history of use, is one of the most recognized teas in Western tradition. The tea leaves are fully oxidized (fermented), which gives black teas their deep, robust, full-bodied taste. It is an elegant and timeless beverage, simply delightful for savoring in the morning or afternoon. With the highest caffeine content of all the teas, it only contains half the caffeine of coffee. Black tea is known as the world’s number one beverage-hot, cold, flavored or scented.
